Fracassoli Crowned European Champion - Toniste Wins Corinthian Division

The final act of the 2011 Böklunder Melges 24 European Championship, the closing prizegiving ceremony is taking place right now. 

Thanks for watching the blog this week, we hope you have enjoyed our coverage of the regatta and we look forward to your company at the next major Melges 24 event soon.

For now goodbye from Aarhus, Denmark!

It's time for a beer!

Overall Results are here:

Corinthians

That's all from the race course here in Aarhus.  A very big thank you to our Race Committee and our Jury for their sterling service in getting all ten races in the schedule completed and for some great racing.

We'll have more updates on the outcome of that Corinthian protest back ashore and from the prize giving so stand by for more later.

In the Corinthian Division Lenny beat Storm Capital Racing by a couple of places.  Both crossed the line flying protest flags so we have to wait to see the outcome of that before we can confirm our Corinthian Champion.

Hi everyone - just to let you know we have a few technical difficulties here today.  We are going to be able to bring you mark roundings for the final race but we won't be able to upload the videos afloat.  Huge apologies for this but please bear with us - all part of the joys of working at sea as you all know! :-)
